Agree: this is splitting hair. The car actually gets up to 161, which is about right given the Z06 gets up to 171 (albeit faster as it carries about 700lb less weight) and the ZR1 is just 10 or so beyond it.
Also, that straight is not exactly "straight" and either way is not long enough to attain top speed for any of these cars.
Bottom line, even with the official video time, it beats a lot of very fine cars such as the newest Cayman GT4 for example. Well, the ZL1 with STREET tires does that too

Pretty amazing machines I would say
